Cactus League Interactive Baseball for Windows AutoManagerTM Of course, you can manage any team, in any game, any time you want. But, when you do, your opponent will be the Cactus League AutoManager. AutoManager is an expert system designed specifically to provide stiff competition, realistic player usage, and situation sensitivity for the season you are playing. Pre-programmed AutoManager decision-making files are included with each season's Team Disk, to provide maximum accuracy for the season you are playing. AutoManager analyzes the game situation, players' strengths, weaknesses, availabilities, matchups and lots more to determine when to pinch-hit, pinch-run, steal, hit and run, bunt, make substitutions, change pitchers, pitch from the stretch, position fielders, hold runners on, and more. While managers in 2001 routinely bring in a left-handed pitcher to pitch to a left-handed batter in a crucial situation, this was almost unheard of in the 50's. The Cactus League AutoManager system is designed to represent both eras realistically, automatically! And, for those of you who like to tinker, a Debug Version of the game will be available. This will include the AutoManager Editor that will allow you to change the decision-making criteria of an AutoManager (or create ones from scratch) and play games to see if your changes accomplish your goals. There is no programming required to use the AutoManager Editor. You won't believe how easy it is to use! |
